Ryan Poles discusses contract extension for Bears running back D'Andre Swift

Chicago Bears general manager Ryan Poles indicated the team will evaluate a potential contract extension for running back D'Andre Swift. Swift enters the final year of the three-year deal he signed with the organization before the 2024 season. After a difficult first year in Chicago, Swift showed improvement during the 2025 season alongside teammate Kyle Monangai. Poles praised Swift's offseason work and his comfort level in the team's offensive system heading into 2026. While the general manager did not confirm a firm plan for an extension, he acknowledged the organization is weighing roster allocations for the future. Swift will turn 28 later this year as he prepares to serve as a key component of the Bears' backfield again.
